According to The NetCraft Web Server Survey, 66% of all servers on the Web are Apache, while 21% are Microsoft IIS.

Maybe Open Source truly is making gains over Microsoft.

According to Apache.org:

Quote:

The Apache Software Foundation provides support for the Apache community of open-source software projects. The Apache projects are characterized by a collaborative, consensus based development process, an open and pragmatic software license, and a desire to create high quality software that leads the way in its field. We consider ourselves not simply a group of projects sharing a server, but rather a community of developers and users.

Indeed. But on the flip side, the number of ASP.net servers has now caught up with J2EE servers.
